Bedford Academy will consider all applications for places. Admissions into the Academy are organised alongside Bedford Borough Council.

Entry as a New Year 9 Student

Each year the Council distributes information packs via local Middle Schools on the admissions process for Upper Schools. Places need to be applied for and a completed application form needs to be returned to the Council by 31st October. Places will then be allocated and parents will be informed the following spring.

Late Admissions and In-Year Transfers

Students wishing to enter the Academy after the Council deadline can apply by contacting the School Admissions Service at Bedford Borough Council (contact details below).

Entry in to Other Years

Please contact Bedford Borough Council School Admissions Service for an application form; all applications will be considered and, if the year group applied for has a place available, the Academy may admit the child.
